Description. Math 111B is the second quarter of the year-long
abstract algebra sequence. It is an introduction to algebraic
structures with an emphasis on rings.

Grading. The plan is to cover (approximately) Chapters 12-18
of Gallian. Extensive homework assignments will be given. Your grade
will be determined by homework scores (including class participation
and possibly some quizzes), one exam and a final exam. The exam will
test the material covered during the first five weeks of the course;
the final will test the second five weeks. The weights (and
approximate dates) of each of these are as follows.

Make-ups: Make-ups for exams will only be given with
documented University-approved excuses (see University Regulations).

ADA. Students with disabilities can get assistance from the
Disabled Students Program Office (893-2668). I'm happy to work with
them and with you.
